JSTORTulane's subscription to JSTOR allows access to several journals in the area of Classical Studies, along with additional selections in art history, history, religion, linguistics and archaeology. Note: Charles E. Jones, librarian for the Institute of Study of the Ancient World, has compiled a list of journals that publish content on the ancient world (broadly construed) and are available in JSTOR.

BiASA – Periodici Italiani DigitalizzatiThis site, sponsored by the Ministero per i Beni Culturali, offers pdf versions of 117 Italian periodicals. Most of these are journals that began in the 19th century, and although available volumes are generally the first few decades of each journal, these can be difficult to get via ILL due to their age and the condition of these old journals. Journals of interest to classicists include: Africa Italiana, the Atti of the Accademia dei Lincei, Bollettino d'arte, Bollettino di filologia classica, Bullettino comunale (archaeological journal of the city of Rome), Bullettino di archeologia cristiana, Monumenti antichi, Notizie degli scavi, and Studi Romani. Registration is required, but free, in order to use the site.

Other image sources

Wikimedia Commons
This site offers images under the Creative Commons License. You can download and use most images for non-commercial purposes. The site is fairly well indexed with searchable categories. The labeling of the images is generally reliable, with occasional mistakes. Image sizes are typically suitable for PowerPoint use, though some resizing may be needed.

Flickr
This is a photo-sharing website. A surprisingly large selection of images of classical art and ancient sites are available here; however, caution is advised since the labeling can be inaccurate at times. Searching relies on the tags given to the images by the individuals who post them. Not all images are available for download.

Google - Image searches
Google offers the option to search for images. Be aware, however, that Google's method of retrieval is to show you images from every web page in which the text contains one or more of the search terms you specify. This means that a search for "Pantheon" might turn up images of things other than the actual ancient Pantheon building in Rome (e.g., the one in Paris!). Since Google searches often yield results in the thousands, you should try using the Advanced Search options to specify additional search criteria, such as size of the image (800 x 600 pixels or larger is best for PowerPoint use), exact phrasing of search, etc.
